Brought to you by folk - The All-in-One CRM for VCs

As a Partner, you're juggling with many different contacts during a day: having a call with a founder, sending an email to a colleague regarding a deal, DM on Linkedin with a Business Angel etc. And as you know your network is your net worth, you're leaving a lot of money on the table if you're not managing it correctly. 

With folk, you can build a founders database, reach out at the right time, and keep track of your deal flow. All in one tool. 

Following your exceptional feedback on last week’s “Top 10 AI Co-Pilots for VC Investors” post, today’s focus will be all on AI Co-Pilots for Startup Founders & Operators. @INVESTORS: Add some value and share it with your portfolio companies, they’ll appreciate it ;)

Let’s zoom out for a second: Why AI Co-Pilots at all? While there are many quick wins like browser plugins for lead gen, data extraction, CRM workflows, content creation, and more, recent developments in AI allow us to go deeper than ever before. LLM-driven Co-Pilots can handle more complex tasks that can be chained together, i.e. a sequence of tasks that comprises a full work package. Extremely powerful and with almost zero effort. The problem is just that we don’t know what’s already out there.

In the absence of a GPT Store, I created BrowseGPTs and asked you all for input to assemble the most comprehensive library of AI agents and Customized GPTs (not sure what this is? difference to ChatGPT unclear? check this out). The full list comprises 100+ GPTs, but only few provide actual value. I’ve spent nights & weekends testing them and collected feedback from a broad range of founders & operators - so you don’t need to.
